Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of control systems. More specifically, it relates to a system of communicative electronic controllers arranged to organize illumination of a cellular area.
  • the present invention discloses a control unit for an illumination system, the system itself and the involved method to operate the system.
  • the objective of the invention is to achieve an energy-efficient illumination and a safe environment.
  • the illumination is for an area, which is formed by at least two cells.
  • the control unit is operatively connected a light source illuminating substantially one cell.
  • the control unit comprises means to monitor the cell for subjects of interest.
  • the unit comprises means to coordinate illumination measures with at least one corresponding control unit in at least one proximate cell by communicating with this corresponding control unit. In a preferred embodiment, communication between said control units is based on a wireless communication method.
  • the illumination measures can comprise adjusting light characteristics variably, setting the light source in a stand-by mode and switching off the light source, where the light characteristics comprise at least one of light intensity and light color.
  • the control unit can monitor its cell by at least one of IR-detectors, electronic cameras with image processing, magnetic sensors, radar equipment, ambient light measuring means, and laser equipment.
  • the subject of interest is in a one embodiment at least one of an object and a person residing inside said cell, moving within said cell, leaving said cell and entering said cell.
  • Said light source may be a single illumination device or a group of illumination devices to be controlled as a single light source.
  • the coordination of illumination measures with the at least one proximate control unit comprises changing illumination in proximate cells to correspond to moving speed and/or a moving direction of said subjects.
  • Another aspect of the present invention is a corresponding system to be used in areas like streets, motorways, parking areas, parks, industrial facilities, public facilities.
  • the coordination of illumination measures comprise incrementally adjusting illumination in a field of view of persons to avoid blinding and/or adjusting illumination changes in proximate cells to correspond the moving speed and/or moving direction of the subjects, which may comprise vehicles and animals.
  • the invention comprises also the aspect of a method to illuminate an area, formed by at least two cells.
  • the method comprises the following steps: monitoring the cell for a subject of interest, sending data about the subject of interest to at least one proximate cell, receiving data from at least one proximate cell, adjusting illumination according to the subject of interest, and/or the data received from one or more proximate cells.
  • Fig 1 shows a block schematic of a controller
  • Fig 2 shows a typical application of a street lighting system
  • Figure 1 shows a block diagram of an electronic controller 100 with a central electronic unit 106 to be connected to a light armature 101.
  • the controller has typically the following features:
  • Figure 2 illustrates a typical system of 5 (as an example) light armatures 201-205 spaced along a street for street illumination of 5 'cells'. Cells are over- lapping as is normally the case in the field of illumination. Each light is operatively controlled by an electronic controller 211-215 mounted to the armature.
  • all lights assumed being of a type that needs some time-consuming pre-heating, are as- sumed being in STAND-BY mode since no object has been detected in any of the monitored cells recently, and there is too little ambient light available - it is night - such that the controllers expect the need for illumination.
  • controller 211 A vehicle 200 is approaching from left, and this event - including the direction and the velocity of the approach - is monitored by controller 211. Since controller 211 has not received any communication from a left-hand light armature controller, it increases illumination to a value which gives illumination, but without blinding the driver of the vehicle. Additionally the controller communicates the event and parameters like velocity and direction to the neighbor controller 212 where the vehicle will arrive later. Controller 212 then already increases illumina- tion from STAND-BY to a level making the vehicle driver being more accustomed to the light, making it possible to increase illumination further than controller 211 without blinding the driver. And further, controller 212 propagates information about the approaching vehicle event to the next controller 213 which in turn can prepare for the approach of the vehicle.
  • an illumination system along a street with vehicles only coming in at one of the ends - the light sources 205 far away from that end of the street could be even in OFF mode at night, since they might be able to run the preheating procedure in due time before a vehicle arrives. This opens up for more energy saving and increased lifetime for the lighting equipment.
  • the controller reduces illumination to a minimum (OFF or STAND-BY depending on the conditions described above).
  • Sensing direction and velocity of objects can be done by image processing if the sensing equipment of the controller comprises an electronic camera and sufficient computing power for image processing or by further communication between two or more controllers which monitor overlapping cells. Also conventio- nal means such as radar, laser or electromagnetic sensor build into the lane can be used.
  • An illumination system disposed along a street typically allows a structured communication net.
  • each controller communicates only with its two adjacent controllers ('neighbours') which makes use of the communicated information and additionally - if necessary - passes the information changed or unchanged through to the next controller.
  • the controllers generally can communicate with any other controller within the system as far as the communication means (cabling, range of radio equipment) technically permits the communication. This option is also valuable to support fail-safe operation in cases where some light sources 204, (no light) or controllers 214, (no radio signal) are out of order and can not participate in the communication.
  • special care can be taken of objects entering the system at unexpected places or otherwise behaving unexpectedly; for instance bigger animals entering the street, cars driving in illegal directions, halting at unexpected places (because of flat tire, engine breakdown, ...) and similar events.
  • the controller can start special illumination and/or communication programs which may call attention to the event to increase safety in the area.
